Vitamin C... for Colds and Flus

Your immune system is under attack every day, due to so many factors like; stress, lack of rest, and poor diet.  These three situations all contribute to reduing the strength of your immune system and weakening your body’s response, and folks its all about response.  Response is the difference between you getting a cold or flu or fighting it off before it takes hold.  Unfortunately we often don’t think about bolstering our immune response until it’s too late.  Until the cold or flu is right there in our body, and we are fighting with whatever immune support we have already got stored up.  Vitamin C is a water soluable nutrient, which means we have to get it outside of our bodies, so we can store it up again… It’s a tricky one to balance, and is always used up in stressful situations, as are the B Vitamins…

If you don’t exercise, you will attract more colds and flu’s to your body, and you will suffer from depression orientated conditions.  Keeping yourself moving, walking, stretching etc, is the key to maintaining a strong immune system and a happier outlook.

Even when it looks gloomy outside, I suggest  you get your coat on, rug up, and lace up your best walkers and get walking.  You will feel fantastic after 30 minutes of walking, and have a healthier appetite for a meal.  Burning the calories justifies the extra serving if you think you need it.   Read the rest of this entry
